WoW Classic Closed Beta - Level 40 and Arathi Basin Testing

TMSean will be happy.

Seriously how did you mess up so bad as to give him a beta invite?

Thatā€™s a good point, though I donā€™t know how many were really try-harding to that degree. Some of the streamers certainly, but I donā€™t think most of us had that incentive. I hadnā€™t reached 30 yet, and I know others were playing around with multiple classes.

I would love a beta invite to help test all aspects!! Please, I love you Blizzard :slight_smile:

more testers tho? ā€¦winkwink*

Iā€™m not a streamer, nor do I watch them and I got an invite. So itā€™s not only streamers.

Also, does this mean Beta wonā€™t be back until Thursday, or will it be back up later today?

The streamers basically get 3 months to build up classic content and network with people for their streams and prospect for guilds and stuff. Imagine trying to start a company and other people want to do the same thing but they have a 1/4 of a year jump on the market.

I feel like a slow poke.

Iā€™ve been beta testing since it started and my ā€˜mainā€™ is only level 23.

I need to beta harder!

Sounds great, canā€™t wait to test those zones andā€¦ presumably, get a mount at 40. Hope the other beta testers didnā€™t blast through every quest they could take at 40 in order to get gold, because those people are going to have some serious grinding ahead of them.

This. As much as I really donā€™t like some of the toxic streamers these days, thereā€™s a ton of us in beta not streaming and actually testing stuff.

Iā€¦uhh deleted my level 30s yesterdayā€¦ and have no restoreā€¦ shoot

Iā€™ve been doing every single yellow ! Quest in every zone, taking my time.

Only level 23 though with about 3 gold and I donā€™t ever buy anything from vendors except skills.

Gold is hard to get while leveling, having to keep buying skills.

I dont think Iā€™ll be able to buy a mount even if I get to 40 before beta ends.

Just do quests at level 40ā€¦ they give 3g each

Iā€™ve only been buying the skills I THINK I need =). Like I didnā€™t train Righteous Fury on my paladin because I donā€™t need it, thereā€™s also a couple of other things I missed.

My priest skipped certain Disc skills, and my Druid most of the Balance / Restoration.

Iā€™m up to 64 gold on my Priest, though my mount isnā€™t near that since I play Paladin.

Are there more accounts being flagged for the beta test? Iā€™ve been playing wow since Vanilla and have been checking my email like every 5 minutes. Itā€™d be really awesome to have more invites go out to allow more people to re-experience classic!

Hey thanks for the update, although Iā€™m not in, I still have a blast keeping up and watching streams and see this game grow. Woohoo

Yeah, the people I was more referring to are the level 30ā€™s that went around doing all available quests they could find, the reason being that because level 30 was the cap, experience from quests was converted to gold.

I took my Paladin to Ashenvale over the weekend and did every quest there because I wonā€™t need to touch it in order to level and I walked away with about 35-40g. The people that grouped up to do quests in zones like STV, Arathi, etc. in order to earn gold are probably filthy rich and have great gear - but theyā€™ll be out of quests to go from 30 to 32-34!

So again, you are also describing beta testers from 2004. You are just salty at beta testers.

Well ofcourse, I mean I have 3 IRL friends I hangout with in Discord every day. They started in 2004 but i didnt start until about a month after them. So ya the fact that I canā€™t play with my Friends for 3 months is lame. So now I have more time to post to these forums.

Invites would indeed be awesome at this point.

Guess i was hoping for a more formal time but that works.
